Yellow

Yellow is a color that can be used all year long, in shades at least. By shades I mean that fall and winter are perfect occasions for using gold, which I consider a shade of yellow. However, my favorite time to use yellow is in the spring and the summer. The most popular yellow color combination right now is light yellow and a light blue. To me this sounds like the perfect spring color combination. Imagine light yellow dresses outside with all of the freshly blooming flowers and bright green grass, along side the bride in an ivory dress. This would make for fantastic photographs! You could add the blue accent in almost anywhere. A light blue sash on the girls dresses, a signature blue cocktail and the reception, blue hydrangeas as centerpieces with maybe some yellow accent in with them. That would offset the girls yellow dresses with blue sashes nicely.

But personally my favorite color combination for yellow is a light yellow and light green with an accent of red. I have seen photographs of the most beautiful wedding with these colors and I have loved this yellow color combination ever since. I believe these would be wonderful colors for a summer wedding, especially an outdoor wedding. The yellow sun, beautiful green grass, and an assortment of beautiful red, green, and yellow flowers, imagine the possibilities especially of everything that you could do yourself. If you were doing an outdoor wedding at a garden or in a field there would be no need to decorate the venue because its natural beauty would be enough. However you could put out decorative signs for guests to be directed towards different places such as the dance floor and the venue. You could also use these colors for an assortment of signature cocktails such as a mojito.

Make sure you share with everyone your favorite yellow color combinations!
